Char Kwee Tiaw after hours, no cooking needed…read more A long day, BoxFit session done around 8:30pm, now I'm hungry for some quick goodness to satisfy this craving. Woohooooo, Eureka this place is still open, we were the last customers. As we walked in two Ceiling fans were working hard, I don't think the AC was on, it was HOT, steamy, the room is filled with South East Asian aromas and it's not even a 40 degree Melbourne day, lots of goodness has been cooked and served before us, humidity, smells & sweats, reminiscence of a Hawker street somewhere in KL, Kuala Lumpur. I can feel my sweat from the BoxFit session has a new flavours now. From the Street level, this place is nothing fancy, the bright Green Jade colour is the only attractive feature about it, BUT what they are serving are incredible for what they are charging, they could and should charge more. Started with the CKT (Malaysian and Singaporean loves to abbreviate words) or Char Kwee Tiaw, Fried Rice Noodles, then Char Hor Fun, Combination Fried Rice Noodles with Egg Gravy sauce and lastly some Curry Puffs or Samosa (Indian) or Pastel (Indonesian). This pastry varied inside, but has common ingredients; Potatoes, Curry and Chilly. It was the right decision, not sure whether my muffin top would agree, worry about that later. In under than 5 minutes after we ordered, those goodness were flying onto our table .... so QUICK .... they served the best first ..... CKT - Char Kwee Tiaw, easy 8.5/10 ....VERY strong aroma of the Pork Crackling and Chinese Sausages, BIG Prawns just needs that burnt-wok taste, makes it a little drier .... That was a joy for around $12 Char Hor Fun 7/10, not quite there, rice noodles needs to be fried more but the Egg Gravy Sauce was tasty, it can be better and traces of the egg yolks still prominent, that tasty runny eggs .... about $12 Curry Puffs easily 8/10, fried to perfection, balanced ingredients and served hot, very important in my opinion, the aromatic flavours lingers as you bite into it, $5,50 for three. All these flavours plus Sambal & Chillies makes my palate sings. Life doesn't get much better than this after a long long day. Simplistic Joy and no drugs needed, just some CKT. A decade ago or so we might not be able to get these kind of offerings, so I must thank & commend the Chef and proprietor of the business for bringing that Hawkers' spirit and providing these goodness for us to enjoy.

I like to support Malaysian business but your food and service is not up to basic level. Your curry and food is cold and come in cheap plastic takeaway tubs /plates and you want to charge it as fine dining prices. Your service is poor and you cannot handle a simple 3 person lunch order without having to remind you what is missing. Your coffee and teh tarik is nothing what it should be and your prices are really too rich and mahal for me. Pls check around the food and price of your surrounding restaurant and you will find you are overpriced.

Their curries here are very authentic and packed full of spicy and robust flavors. Rich Maha is a run down, old and ugly looking restaurant, the chairs and tables are cheap and wobble, and the whole place doesn't look very well maintained in general, this doesn't stop the hordes of people from dining here though. Rich Maha offers 1 thing, very tasty food at a very good price. They have a large variety of curries here, each with different flavors and bases - I would say most people here come and order a variety of curries with a side of roti. They offer a lot of other traditional dishes too, such as Nasi Lemak and Curry Laksa. I really enjoyed the food here, but will probably order takeaway next time because I feel like the dining area is dirty and too crowded.

Say 15 years ago? Impossible .... It's what POSITIVE multiculturalism is all about, enriching the community, not taking it away. A little bit hidden, not on the main drag, plenty of parking, from the signage on the dark glass window suggest a well design establishment. It was, that Post-modern Asian influence interior, old Chinese posters as wall paper, cafe lighting, etc. pleasant on the eyes, great ambiance. On the food itself, my Char Kwee Tiaw has that classic burnt taste, although it was a bit heavy on the Soysauce but those Squids, Prawns, Chinese Sausage and the star of the show Pork Cracklings are all in there working hard plus the Sambal and fresh cut Chilies; Double Happiness to accompany this CKT. Cockle on the CKT perhaps? We'll be back with the troop so I can order more food. WELL DONE and thank you to the Proprietor for the vision in bringing the Malaysian Hawker Food Spirit all the way to Bayswater.
